Reply to T.

EDITOR GOLD LEAF.-A writer in
the 7orthAgAt of the 25rd inst, sign
ing himself ''T.," says he "knows
whereof he speaks and gives his anx-
ious, inquiring friends information
with regard to the location of the
depot, and the time when the engine
will come wh;stling into town. 1t was
pretty much matter Of conjecture
betore-a question that perplexed the
minds, and somewhat disturbed the
equanimity of their tempers. With re-
gard to Henderson, he says, " Our
neighboring town, Henderson, may
blow as much as they please about that
being the terminus of the Oxford &
GAINESVILLE Railroad we know whereof
we speak, that this is all CANNON. We
will connect our road with the Oxford
s. Henderson of course, but it is alb
surd to talk about Henderson being
the terminus. Will " T." please tell
us where the CANNON" and absurd
ity of thinking, when a road starts
from one point and terminates at an
o her, the end Of the route, if the stol :
ping place is not the terminus If the
stopping point of 4 road is not the
terminus, where is it? Is it in the
middle or on the sides
But perhaps our knowing friend has
learned that the company will extend
their line further on eastward. In that
event Henderson would not wish to
be the terminus Of the Richmond s.
Danville line, or the Oxford & Clarks-
vile road, as the writer i" T." will per-
sist in calling it. With an extension
of the road to some important point
on the east, we would lose none of the
advantages we now have, and have an
additional feeder to our thriving town.
At any rate, we Hendersonites, away
down here at place to which only
four or five railroads will run, for the
present must be pardoned for thinking
that at the depot where the cars stop
at the end of the route is the terminus
of the road. X.

Eminent physicians all agree that
by not properly protecting their feet
from dampness and wet, many people
bring upon themselves diseases which
are often attributed to other causes by
people less wise. The doctors are
right, and those who wish to have
warm, dry feet all winter should buy
their rubbers and winter shoes at E..
G.. Davis Store.
The Bard of Ayr wrote the some
what melancholy lines commencing,
"When chill Novembers bitter winds,
Make countless thousands MOURN
These lines have been immortalized
and their repetition will always bring
back fond memories of pleasant hours
spent with the poets. Still, our lines
at the present time will possess, if any
thing, greater interest to the readers
of the GOLD LEAF. Our strain is more
joyous we would put it thus:
When chill November's biting winds,

Call in and see our winter stock,
And spend dollar or two.

that we can give you entire satisfaction.

VERY TRUE-The FOLLOWING from one OF
our exchanges is truthful and to the point:
No town grows more rapidly than the
citizens desire it to. If the people of any
town sit still and say we have done all we
can do-our town is good enOugh-we have
business enough, they need not be surprised
if they have told the truth, SO far as the
future growth is concerned. There is no
reason why the great ma Iority Of the towns
in the State should not grow more rapidly
than they do except this self satisfied feel
ing that will injure any town more than a
pestilence or cyclone, OF earthquake, OF a
big freshet

THEATRICAL.-I.ast week our theatre
going people had the opportunity, and
pretty generally aviied themselves of it, to
attend a good play every night. The
Meyer-Thorne company was succeeded by
the Rose Osborne company on Thursday
night in the rendition of Fortunes Fool
with Miss Osborne as COralie LoriOt. In
this play Miss OsbOrne's acting was, as
usual, good, but her male support was not
| such as her acting deserves. Miss Lydia
lCOrduan as Juliet acted her part
| with an effect that indicated ability for
more difficult parts. The renditions of
Chas. Trenaine and II. G.. Todd in the
characters of Richard Daracot and Robert
Rattles was above average in travelling
company, but the other male parts could
be much improved.
On Friday night Miss Osborne appeared
as Cora the Creole" in 81 Article II, in
which she did some grand acting, and dis
played some magnificent costumes. This
night her support was some better and the
acting less open to criticism. They played
! to full houses both nights, and gave a
matinee on Saturday afternoon and also
played Forget Me Not" at night to small
houses, owing to the fact our people are
too busy on Saturday to attend any amuse.

SUPPORT YOUR HOME PAPER.-The
GOLD LEAF is your home paper, and as
such has right to ask and expect your
support. Remember when you patrOniZe
it you are helping to sustain home insti-
tuition. True, it is not quite so large or so
cheap as some Northern papers, but the
latter has 10 interest down here, they care
nothing for you or your section, and every
dollar sent them is that much taken away
from home never to return. We have no
complaint to make because of lack of pat
ronage, but merely want to impress this
fact upon some people who prefer to go
away from home for everything.
